"May this work go forth and reach more ears and hears. Life is Good. Joy is the feeling.""Knowing what is happening to us as a species and all other life on Earth can lead us to live what McPherson calls Lives of Excellence right here and right now. It is this message more than any other, that can lead to a sense of liberation from the drudgery and stress of life in industrial civilization and from what we thought we were 'supposed to be and do'. And with that freedom, we can choose to live the lives that we want to live, to be honest with ourselves and with one another, and to be the very best that we can be."

"I am not alone, I am not a victim.""I can be genuine and compassionate."
